Newbie 70 Cuda Owner
« on: February 23, 2013 - 10:28:40 AM »
Hello all  I wanted to make an intro post from  :canada: as I just got back into the muscle car game after many years. I recently picked up  a project car 70 Cuda 493 Stroker with Keisler 5 speed.. It needs some proper finishing as the previous owner had "good" intentions but did some hack work.. Nothing that can't be addressed....     My first order of business is to remove the dual quad set up and I just noticed some rust :pullinghair:  behind the hood hinges..................................

Hack work seems to be very common lately with these cars.

Can't speak to the history of your car, but welcome to the site from a fellow Canuck. What part of the Great Frozen North are you in?  :wave:
